I did use the bow until they got close. Then I switched to melee. I found fighting against other sword fighters easy. The tough fights involved wolves and boars, but still I don't recall dying that easily. I never fought Ogres; allway's ran away from them . Probably the easiest creatures to beat using melee were "Monsters" I think.

The "Fast Swinging" is useless in my opinion.
